Eat All-You-Can Buttermilk Pancakes at IHOP!

On March 8, all IHOP restaurants in the Philippines will once again join locations all over the world from the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Guam and Mexico will celebrate a unique and beloved IHOP restaurant tradition : National Pancake Day!

From 7AM to 10PM on Tuesday, March 8th, all 6 IHOP locations will be offering guests the opportunity to enjoy unlimited servings of their world famous buttermilk pancakes for only P250, to enjoy in the restaurant. P200 out of the P250 The price generated from those pancakes will once again be donated to the Kythe Foundation, which provides children with cancer and chronic illnesses the chance to learn, play, and grow while in treatment, even if they’re in the hospital. National Pancake Day began in the United States in 1995 and in the past decade has raised $20 million dollars for children’s health charities in the local communities Last year, for the first time ever, IHOP Philippines joined the celebration, raising P400,000 money for Kythe Foundation.

“When we launched the National Pancake Day promotion 11 years ago, we had no idea that it would become so successful and so warmly embraced by our franchise partners, our team members and our guests” said Daniel del Olmo, President, of International, DineEquity Inc, the parent company of IHOP restaurants. “It is especially gratifying to see it become a tradition in the Philippines, knowing that our guests are enjoying our pancakes while raising money that will make a positive impact in the lives of children throughout the country. We’re grateful to Global Restaurants for embracing this wonderful IHOP tradition.”

“Last year marked a milestone for IHOP Philippines during our 1st ever National Pancake Day where we were able to raise, with the public’s generous and kind hearted support, a total of P 400,000 for the Kythe Foundation. This year, we are once again elated to take part in IHOP’s arguably most popular and clearly most impactful tradition,” said Archie Rodriguez, CEO of Global Restaurant Concepts Inc., IHOP restaurant franchisee in the Philippines. “With every single IHOP restaurant in the Philippines participating in our 2nd National Pancake Day, we are looking to raise a total of P600,000 this year for the Kythe Foundation to aid, in our own small way, in improving the quality of life and alleviating the condition of our children battling pediatric cancer.”
